GRANDFATHER 5 DREAM.

BY OLIVIA LOWELL WILSON
'Tis New Year eve, and Grand ather Grey
sits by the hearth in the homestead hall,
Watching the evening shadows creep,
The freight flicker and fall.
A smile stirs the lips of the kind old man
AS the sounds OF mirth smote his ear,
His children and grandchildren, III lower hail.
Greeting the glad New Year.
He grown weary of noisy glee,
Had stolen away for moments rest,
When Blindmans Buff reached its acme of fun,
And the Snap dragon was in quest.
And now with sigh for the days lang syne''
The old man lifts his face
To gaze in a mirror that hangs aloft
Over the chimney place.
ONLY the room, in shadowy gloom
HIS reflection another shadow there,
His hands folded in WEAKNESS,
The fire glow on his silvery hair;
But suddenly, like veil drawn back,
The mirror grows brighter, and at his feet
He sees reflected a little child
Lisping its 'plaintGn accents sweet.
A child so like him the old man turns,
Listens as years of JOY and pain
Were but as a day and at fathers knee
He was but three years old again
Once more the mirror is brighter still
4 LAD of ten leans against his knee
This must be Hector, his twin long dead,
For who so like him? SO bonnie as he?
Still more radiant the mirror grew,
And all agIow with giriish grace
Fairest of form, 1aIrest of face;
Aud he sees q youth bend above his chair,
ais hands both o the maiden's seek,
AS he draws her close in fond caress,
Leaving kiss upon her check.
Brighter the mirror Who is it that smiles
On the lovers caress that face to him
Sweeter than heavenly vision vOuchSafed,
Or tire lace of holy seraphim?
Is it his wife? with the cares and the joy,
Numbering treasures of burdens we'll borne
The wife his youth the wife of his ag07
Ehe lace he had kissed on his marriage morn
Then suddenly round him murmur arose;
About him came touches, tenderly light,
Wake. grandpa" cried voices sn soft, subdued
tOnes
Wake! we have all come to bid you good
He reused from his place with start of sur
prise;
He had slept; yet, there in the freight CLEAN
He behed in the mirror over his head
A group strangely like the one of his dream.
At his feet the babe of his youngest child
Lisped hergood night in childish glee;
md Hector, the namesake of he who was dead,
His sons eldest boy leaned against his knee.
Above him the. son and the wife stood and
smiled
Seeing his waking glance tenderly fall
On grandmother's face, so sweetly serene,
Stunning the sight most blessed of all.
